Definitions
- the invention relates generally to compositions and methods for treating cancer and autoimmune disease.
- lymphoid system lymphomas and certain leukemias
- NHL non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma
- ALL acute lymphocytic leukemia
- first-line treatment for many lymphomas typically includes chemotherapy.
- chemotherapy will often entail the administration of a "cocktail" of compounds, e.g., the formulation CHOP, which includes cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, and prednisone.
- certain first-line cancer treatments also include other forms of cancer therapy, such as radiation or antibody therapy.
- patients respond initially to such first-line treatments, but subsequently suffer a relapse, i.e., a tumor reappears or resumes growing. Following one such relapse, patients are often treated with further chemotherapy, e.g., with CHOP or with other formulations, or, in some cases, the patients are treated with other procedures such as bone marrow transplantation.
- Antibody therapies take advantage of the fact that lymphoid cells express cell surface markers that are restricted to specific lymphoid cell types.
- the antibody most frequently used for the treatment of B cell-derived lymphomas and leukemias Rituxan, specifically binds to CD20, which is restricted in its expression to B lymphocytes.
- Rituxan is used as a naked antibody and effectively depletes both normal and cancerous B cells.
- Rituxan has been approved for the treatment of patients with relapsed or refractory, low-grade or follicular, CD20-positive, B-cell non Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL), in which scenario it has shown a response rate of about 50% and a median duration of response, defined as progression free survival, of about 1 year.
- Rituxan has also been approved for the first-line treatment of diffuse large B-cell, CD20-positive, non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (DLBCL- a type of NHL) in combination with CHOP (cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine and prednisone) or other anthracycline-based chemotherapy regimens.
- DLBCL- a type of NHL non-Hodgkin's lymphoma
- CHOP cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine and prednisone
- the addition of Rituxan extends progression free survival over that seen with chemotherapy alone by about 1.5 years. Multiple mechanisms of action are thought to contribute to Rituxan's cytotoxic effect, including antibody dependent cellular cytotoxicity and complement dependent cytotoxicity.
- the long residence time of CD20 on the cell surface and its resistance to internalization following antibody binding contribute to the ability of Rituxan to focus these natural immune functions on the cancer cell.
- Rituxan has spurred multiple drug development programs focused on CD20.
- Several companies have new CD20-specific antibodies in clinical development.
- Antibody mimetics targeting CD20 are also in various stages of development. While future CD20-specific biologies may provide further improvement in response rate and duration of response over those attained with Rituxan, it is nearly certain that there will still be many patients who do not respond at all to CD20-targeted therapy or who will require a different class of drugs following relapse.
- CD22 is another surface molecule restricted in its expression to B lymphocytes. CD22 is expressed in 60-80% of B cell malignancies. Naked antibodies and radiolabeled antibodies have shown encouraging results in treating NHL, either as monotherapy or in combination with chemotheiapeutics or Rituxan. Further, the fact that CD22, unlike CD20, readily internalizes following antibody binding has opened the door to the development of immunotoxins, antibodies that are conjugated to toxic moieties that are released once inside the target cell. While immunotoxins are often very potent, they frequently cause undesirable toxicities, including death. The toxicities seen with immunotoxins are thought to derive in large part from extracellular release of the toxins.
- Mantle cell lymphoma is an example of an aggressive, non-Hodgkins lymphoma. Mantle cell lymphoma is found in lymph nodes, the spleen, bone marrow, blood, and sometimes the gastrointestinal system (lymphomatosis polyposis). Mantle cell lymphoma is generally characterized by CD5-positive follicular mantle B cells, a translocation of chromosomes 11 and 14, and an overexpression of the cyclin Dl protein. Like the low-grade lymphomas, mantle cell lymphoma appears incurable with anlhracycline-based chemotherapy and occurs in older patients with generally asymptomatic advanced-stage disease. However, the median survival is significantly shorter (3-5 years) than ⁇ :hat of other lymphomas; hence this histology is now considered to be an aggressive lymphoma.
- Drugs that specifically target 13 lymphocytes are also candidate therapeutics for the treatment of autoimmune diseases. Most notably, Rituxan has been approved for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis. Additional anti-CD20 antibodies and antibody mimetics as well as biologies targeting CD22 are also likely to be effective in treating rheumatoid arthritis as well as other autoimmune diseases.
- the invention provides novel therapeutics for the treatment of B-cell malignancies and autoimmune disorders.
- a B-cell malignancy is for example B-cell lymphoma or leukemia.
- An autoimmune disorder is for example rheumatoid arthritis, systemic lupus erythematosus, multiple sclerosis, type 1 diabetes, Crohn's disease or ulcerative colitis.
- the drug delivery system is stable in the extracelluar milieu but rapidly falls apart inside the cell releasing a cytotoxic agent capable of killing the cell.
- the drug delivery system contains a targeting moiety that allows for the selective targeting of specific cell types to be killed.
- the drug delivery system is multi-layered.
- a first layer is a nanocage that is made by the self assembly of a plurality of viral proteins.
- the viral protein is a Hepatitis B virus core protein or mutant thereof.
- the first layer encapsulates the cytotoxic agent.
- the cytotoxic agent is a toxin, chemotherapeutic agent or radiochemical.
- the second layer that surrounds the nanocage is a lipid bilayer of a plurality of lipids, e.g., cationic or anionic lipids.
- a B-cell targeting moiety is anchored in the lipid bi-layer.
- the B-cell targeting moiety is an anti-CD22 antibody, an anti-CD20 antibody, an anti-CD19 antibody, an antiimmunoglobulin antibody, an anti-FcR-Hl antibody, an anti-CD80 antibody, an anti-CD52 antibody, or a fragment or mimetic thereof.
- the B-cell targeting moiety is a microprotein.
- the B cell targeting moiety may be a combination of any of the foregoing. Also included in the invention is a method of treating or alleviating a sign or symptom of a B-cell malignancy or an autoimmune disorder by administering to a subject, e.g., a mammal such as a human, the drug delivery system according to the invention.

- Figure 5 A is a line graph showing that anti-CD22 targeted nanocages bind to B cells (BCLl) with more specificity than they bind to T Cells (Jurkat).
- BCLl B cells
- T Cells Jurkat
- Non-targeted nanocages bind to both cell types with similar affinity at low concentrations, but better to B Cells at higher concentrations.
- Figure 5B is a photograph of semi-confluent BCLl cells (a; brightfield), were counter stained with Hoechst 33342 (b) to reveal nuclei. Internalized nanocages are seen within all cells in the filed of view (c; 3 nM).
- Figure 6A are photographs showing internalized fluorescent nanocages are visible at 10OnM and 2.5 nM concentrations of anti-CD22 targeted nanocages.
- Figure 6 B is a line graph showing the dose-response of anti-CD22 targeted nanocages and non-targeted nanocages in BCLl cells.
- Figure 7 is a line graph showing that "free" anti-CD22 antibody mixed with purified anti-CD22 targeted nanocages results in a >100-fold shift in the dose-response relationship of nanocage internalization in B Cells. Free anti-CD22 antibody containing preparations (squares); purified anti-CD22 targeted nanocages (circles).
- the targeted nanoparticle drug delivery system is assembled from four components which include a viral capsid protein (C protein) from Hepatitis B, a lipid, a cytotoxic agent and a targeting moiety.
- C protein viral capsid protein

- B cell leukemias include for example, small lymphocytic/B cell chronic lymphocytic leukemia (SLL/B-CLL ALL-L3 (Burkitt's type leukemia), chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), and acute lymphoblastic leukemia.
- SLL/B-CLL ALL-L3 Burkitt's type leukemia
- CLL chronic lymphocytic leukemia
- Autoimmune disease includes any autoimmune disease wherein elimination or depletion or inhibition of the activity or proliferalion of B cells is therapeutically beneficial.
- Such autoimmune diseases will include in particular T and B cell mediated autoimmune diseases.
- Examples include, the treatment or prevention of autoimmune, inflammatory, proliferative and hyperproliferative diseases, and of cutaneous manifestations of immunologically mediated diseases (e.g., rheumatoid arthritis, lupus erythematosus, systemic lupus erythematosus, Hashimoto's thyroiditis, multiple sclerosis, myasthenia gravis, type 1 diabetes, uveitis, nephrotic syndrome, psoriasis, atopical dermatitis, contact dermatitis and further eczematous dermatitides, seborrheic dermatitis, lichen planus, pemplugus, bullous pemphigus, epidermolysis bullosa, urticaria, angioedemas, vasculitides, erythema, cutaneous eosinophilias, or Alopecia areata); the treatment of reversible obstructive airways disease, intestinal
- the targeting moiety is a B-cell specific targeting moiety.
- the targeting moiety selectively targets normal B-cells (i.e., non-cancerous) or transformed B-cells (i.e., cancerous).
- a B-cell specific targeting moiety is a compound that binds to a B cell surface marker, B cell antigen or certain members of the Fc Receptor family.
- Exemplary B cell surface markers include the CDlO, CD 19, CD20, CD21 , CD22, CD23, CD24, CD37, CD52, CD53, CD72, CD73, CD74, CDw75, CDw76, CD77, CDw78, CD79a, CD79b, CD80, CD81, CD82, CD83, CDw84, CD85 and CD86 leukocyte surface markers.
- a preferred B cell surface marker is preferentially expressed on B cells compared to other non-B cell tissues of a mammal and may be expressed on both precursor B cells and mature B cells.
- Most preferably the B-cell surface marker is CD22.
- CD22 is also known as "BL-CAM" and "LybB" and is involved in B cell signaling and cell-cell adhesion.
- the B-cell specific targeting moiety is an antibody or fragment thereof.
- antibody refers to immunoglobulin molecules and immunologically active portions of immunoglobulin (Ig) molecules, i.e., molecules that contain an antigen binding site that specifically binds (immunoreacts with) an antigen.
- Ig immunoglobulin
- Such antibodies include, but are not limited to, polyclonal, monoclonal, CDR-grafted, chimeric, single chain Fv, nanobodies, domain antibodies (dAbs), F u b, F ub - and F( ab )2 fragments.
- the B-cell specific targeting moiety is a non-natural ligand, e.g., an antibody mimetic.
- a B-cell specific mimetic is an agent that is capable of binding a B-cell surface marker or antigen with an affinity and specificity similar to those of an antibody.
- Mimetics include for example, polypeptides derived from natural protein scaffolds, such as lipocalins, ⁇ -pleated sheets, A domains, etc. Microproteins are derived through mutagenesis of small cysteine-rich domains, which occur naturally in many proteins, in particular, in toxins from a variety of venomous species, including snakes, scorpions, spiders, snails and anemones.
- Microproteins are typically small (35-55 amino acids), cysteine rich (cysteines constitute at least 15% of the total amino acid composition) and nonimmunogenic. Microproteins can also be engineered to have long circulating half-lives, similar to those of antibodies, by the addition of peptides that bind to immunoglobulin or serum albumin in the circulation. Thus, they provide many of the advantages of antibodies for specific_targeting but also offer superiority in terms of cost of manufacturing, due to their small size.
- Small molecules include, but are not limited to, peptides, peptidomimetics (e.g., peptoids), amino acids, amino acid analogs, polynucleotides, polynucleotide analogs, nucleotides, nucleotide analogs, organic and inorganic compounds (including heterorganic and organomettallic compounds) having a molecular weight less than about 5,000 grams per mole, organic or inorganic compounds having a molecular weight less than about 2,000 grams per mole, organic or inorganic compounds having a molecular weight less than about 1,000 grams per mole, organic or inorganic compounds having a molecular weight less than about 500 grams per mole, and salts, esters, and other pharmaceutically acceptable forms of such compounds.

- a cytotoxic agent is any agent that is capable of killing a cell.
- a cytotoxic agent is for example a chemotherapeutic agent, a toxin (e.g., an enzymatically active toxin of bacterial, fungal, plant, or animal origin, or fragments thereof), a radioactive isotope (e.g.., a radioconjugate), or an antisense or iRNA molecule that suppresses the synthesis of proteins essential for cell survival.

- HBV C-protein is a protein that naturally self-assembles to form the protein capsid of the virus and is 183 amino acids in size with a high concentration of positively charged amino acids at the C-terminal end that dangle into the interior of the capsid when assembled.
- This dangling tail can be engineered in many ways so as to specifically interact with molecules of a given characteristic.
- the natural state of the protein has a cluster of positive charges at this end that can interact with negatively charged molecules such as DNA or RNA.
- the C-protein can be engineered so that the C-terminal tail has a cluster of negative charges (Asp or GIu residues) that can interact with positively charged molecules. Further, the C-protein can be engineered to form a fusion protein with a toxin or protox in.
- SEQ ID NO. 1 Hepatitis Core Pntigen: protein sequence 1 to 183:
- HBV core protein assembles to form an icosahedral subviral capsid.
- C-protcin monomers form dimers which associate tightly via a "spike.”
- the spike is a central four alpha-helical bundle (Bottcher B et. al., Determination of the fold of the core protein of hepatitis B virus by electron cryomicroscopy, Nature 386:88-91, 1997) with a 2-fold axis of symmetry.
- the icosahedral subviral particle consists of 120 C-protein dimers assembled around 5-fold and 6-fold axes in a rough head-to-tail type interaction. In the mature virus, the tips of the central spikes of the 120 dimers are oriented close the surface of the particle where it is coated by a plasma membrane envelope. Mutation in the HBV C-protein is introduced to confer specific functional properties to the nanoparticles.
- the HBV C-protein is mutated in the spike area of the dimer or the interface between dimers. Mutations in the spike are used to introduce functional groups at the surface of the capsid in order to promote envelopment by a plasma membrane.
- a "protease recognition loop" is engineered in the spike to facilitate the breakdown of the entire capsid once it reaches the bloodstream. Mutations in the interface will stabilize the capsid as to"tune" the lifetime of the capsid prior to disassembly.
- either the amino acid cysteine or the amino acid lysine will be placed at the tip of the spike in such a way as to protrude away from the capsid surface toward the plasma membrane envelope.
- Three positions (77, glutamic acid to cysteine; 78, aspartic acid to cysteine; and 80, alanine to cysteine) have been identified for the introduction of these amino acids which will be functionalized at a later stage.
- the choice of lysine or cysteine at each position was dependent of the orientation and geometry of each amino acid as judged from the crystal structure (Wynne SA et.
- pairs of cysteines will be introduced in such a way that they will promote and strengthen i.he assembly.
- the first cysteine e.g. amino acid 23
- the second position e.g. amino acid 132 in this case
- the second position will also participate in a disulphide bond, allowing the dimer to participate in four disulphide bridges and a total of 180 stabilizing covalent interactions.
- Table 1 Dual Cysteine Mutants
- the spike-forming region of the monomer is engineered to contain a lysosomal protease- recognition sequence.
- the protease will recognize and cleave this loop and thereby promote disassembly.
- the most common lysosomal proteases are the cathepsins, aspartate proteases, and zinc proteases.
- the recombinant C-protein will be expressed and purified using common molecular biology and biochemistry techniques.
- the C-protein gene in an expression plasmid is available from commercial vendors.
- Expressed C-protein in solution forms a dimer that is naturally stabilized by specific salt bridges, hydrophobic interactions, and covalent inter- and intramolecular disulfide bonds.
- the intramolecular bonds will be engineered so that C-protein stability can be tuned to a desired level.
- intermolecular disulfide bonds will be engineered so as to tune the stability of the cage.
- Specific salt bridges between dimers that help form the capsid can be mutated to cysteines so that disulfide bonds can form and help stabilize the capsid structure. All modifications of C-protein are based on an extensive analysis of the capsid crystal structure and energy minimization models performed on electron density maps derived from structural data.
- the C-protein will also be engineered so as to contain protease recognition sites at hinge and loop regions.
- the immunodominant spike of the C-protein can accommodate insertions of up to 46 residues and still be able to form capsids.
- Recognition sites for cathepsins, aspartate proteases, or zinc proteases will be inserted into the spikes. These recognition sites add the benefit of quick degradation of the building blocks after the entire system has started to fall apart as a time-release method of releasing the toxins into the intracellular milieu. Keeping the nanocages intact until they enter the cell will minimize the possibility of an immune response to the presence of "naked" C-protein in the blood stream.
- the C-protein is genetically altered such that the C-terminal tail is replaced with the protein therapeutic of choice.
- This will be engineered at the genetic level so as to create a chimeric building block of C-protein and the therapeutic protein (fusion protein).
- the therapeutic protein will be linked to the C-protein by a tether of amino acids that codes for a specific protease recognition site. This will allow the protein therapeutic to be freed after the cage begins to fall apart.
- Another option for specifically attaching a protein therapeutic is to mutate a cysteine residue into the C-protein tail. A matching cysteine residue will be placed on the protein therapeutic of choice. This will create a disulfide bond between the C-protein and the protein therapeutic.
- cysteine residues will be engineered in so that a modified Hepatitis B Virus S-protein can be covalently linked.
- S- proteins will be modified to have cysteines as well to complement the disulfide bridge formation between C-protein.
- the S-protein guides the lipid bi-layer formation.
- a small peptide with similar characteristics could be used to guide envelopment of the cage.
- a sequence that could replace S-protein would have a flexible region that ends with a cysteine so as to form disulfide bridges with the cage.
- the other end of the peptide will be composed primarily of hydrophobic residues.
- An example of such a peptide is below in SEQ ID NO. 4.
- the hydrophobic region of this peptide will associate with the hydrophobic lipid bi-layer region, thus acting to guide the formation of a tight vesicle around the cage.
- SEQ ID NO. 4 HBV S-protein alternative peptide:
- phospholipids can be directly linked to the C-protein core.
- a cysteine residue will be mutated as above.
- fatty acids such as a modified phosphatidyl serine can be covalently attached. These fatty acids can act as a guide for other phospholipids and cholesterols to form a bilayer around the nanocage. This replaces the necessity of S-protein or the previously discussed transmembrane engineered peptide.
- these covalently attached phospholipids to the spike region also known as the immunodominant spike
- immune responses are expected to be significantly repressed. Assembly of the Nanocage and Drug Capturing
- Core proteins in a mildly buffered solution are introduced to the therapeutic compound (e.g., cytotoxic agent or drug) of choice.
- Therapeutic molecule:C-protein complexes form in just a few seconds as dictated by the general physics of molecular diffusion and coulombic attraction.
- the ionic strength of the solution is then elevated by the addition of NaCl to a final concentration of 0.6 M. After incubating the reaction for one hour the presence of fully formed capsids will be verified using standard biochemical analyses.
- the cage will be mixed with either the re-engineered S-protein or with an engineered peptide as mentioned above. These additions will covalently link to a complementary cysteine on the surface of the cage at the spike of each building block.
- Phospholipids can be incorporated into a protein matrix, the most stable of which involves covalently combining a phospholipid to a functional group found on the side chains of specific amino acids within the protein.
- heterobifunctional cross-linking molecules are utilized in order to provide a wide template for which many different functional groups found on different amino acids can be utilized, with the goal of optimizing distance constraints, solvent interactions, combinations of amino acid residue functional groups and phospholipids, and simplicity of synthesis.
- Sulfhydryl functional groups will be specifically engineered into the core proteins. Through these functional groups, phospholipid molecules can then be anchored which will guide the enveloping process and form the liposome.
- heterobifunctional cross-linking molecules allows the possibility of engineering different functional groups: at appropriate anchor points along the core protein matrix while using the same phospholipid precursors, if that is a necessary step.
- sulfhydryl functional groups are also involved in stabilizing the intermolecular interactions between core proteins that will stabilize the core cage. If utilizing the same functional group for anchoring phospholipids prevents the specific interaction of engineered sulfhydryl functional groups to form intermolecular bonds and therefore negatively impact the stability of the core protein shell, then other functional groups such as hydroxyl and amine groups can be engineered into the protein at locations where phospholipid anchoring is specifically designed. This merely requires re-engineering the core proteins at a single location, and the use of an alternative, commercially-available heterobifunctional cross-linking molecule.
- the envelope is a cationic or anionic lipid bilayer.
- a homogeneous mixture of various ratios of lipids (predominately phospholipids) and cholesterol will be made by adding dried components to a solution of chloroform: methanol (2: 1 by volume).
- chloroform methanol (2: 1 by volume).
- 100 mg of phosphatidyl choline, 40 mg of cholesterol, and 10 mg of phosphatidyl glycerol are added to 5 ITiL of chloroform methanol solution. This mixture is gently shaken to thoroughly mix all components. Next the mixture is dried down so as to remove all organic solvents.
- This dried mixture is now introduced to a few milliliters of aqueous solution (buffered H 2 O) and mechanically dispersed by sonication.
- aqueous solution buffered H 2 O
- This solution is quickly added to a suspension of fully assembled nanocages containing captured therapeutic compound.
- the nanocages will already have been covalently modified with either envelopment enhancing peptides (engineered or protein-S) or with phospholipids.
- enveloped cages are separated and purified using simple centrifugation and size exclusion chromatography.
- the functionalities allowthe delivery system to be specifically targeted and delivered to a cell type, e.g., B cells, pass through cell walls and/or evade the immune system.
- Transduction domains include the Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) transactivator of transcription (TAT) peptide or poly- arginine. To anchor the transduction domains in the lipid bilayer they are tagged with cholesterol. Transduction domains may be particularly useful in allowing intracellular entry when the B cell targeting moiety targets a cell surface molecule that does not readily internalize, e.g. CD20.

- Ramos cells from cultures at a density of 1,000,000 cells/mL are drawn from T75 culture flasks into 3 sterile 15 mL conical tubes (3 mL each), spun down, and resuspended in 3 mL complete RPMI medium (each). Cells are incubated with fluorescent anti-CD22 targeted cages, non-targeted cages (both with 3 % DiI embedded in the lipid envelope), or an equal volume of "media only" at 37 0 C at a concentration of 400,000 cages/cell in 3 mL (equal to -60 nM) for 2 hours.
- Cells are then spun down, rinsed two times in 5 mL complete media, rinsed three times in 5 mL sterile PBS, spun down and resuspended in 150 ⁇ L of PBS.
- 150 ⁇ L of 2 % paraformaldehyde is then slowly added to the cells.
- Cells are allowed to fix for 10 minutes, and 100 ⁇ L of cell suspension is added to each of 3 wells of a 96- well plate. Plates are then spun down using a clinical centrifuge and fluorescence is read on a Typhoon Molecular Imager using Cy3 excitation/emission settings. Fluorescent levels are averaged, standard deviations are calculated, and standard errors of the means (error bars) are calculated for each condition (see Figure 4).
- EXAMPLE 10 EVALUATION OF ANTI-CD22 TARGETED VS. NON-TARGETED FLUORESCENT CAGE BINDING INTERNALIZATION
- Adherent BCLl cells are plated onto glass coverslips (Fisher Scientific) in sterile 24-well tissue culture plates 12 hours prior to initiating the experiment. Cells are allowed to grow to semi-confluency (cell density estimated at 200,000 cells/well) in complete RPMI media (see Cell Growth above). To initiate the experiment, cells are rinsed once with media and 500 ⁇ L of media is then added to each well. Following experimental incubations (see below), adherent cells are rinsed once in media and three times in PBS. Cells are then resuspended in 150 ⁇ L PBS and 150 ⁇ L of 2 % paraformaldehyde is added to tubes to slowly fix cells.
- a total of 200,000 suspension cells (Ramos, Jurkat, or HH Cells) are added to sterile 24- well tissue culture plates and media and volumes are adjusted upwards to 500 ⁇ L with complete media. Following experimental incubations (see below), suspension cells are sequentially pelleted and rinsed once in media and three times in PBS. Cells are then resuspended in 150 ⁇ L PBS and 150 ⁇ L of 2 % paraformaldehyde is added to tubes to slowly fix cells.
- cells are incubated with fluorescent anti-CD22 targeted cages, non-targeted cages (both with 3 % DiI embedded in the lipid envelope), or an equal volume of "media only" at 37 0 C at multiple cage concentrations [300,000 cages/cell (-30 nM), 100,000 cages/cell (-10 nM), 30,000 cages/cell (-3 nM), 10,000 cages/cell (-1 nM), 3000 cages/cell (-300 pM), and 1000 cages/cell (-100 pM)] in 500 ⁇ L media for 2 hours.
- EXAMPLE 11 COMPETITION ASSAY USING ANTI-CD22 TARGETED CAGES IN THE PRESENCE OF "FREE- ⁇ NTI-CD22"
- Cage constructs were generated using standard procedures (see previous sections on cage production). Following antibody attachment to the delivery system, normal purification of cages away from free antibody using column chromatography was NOT conducted, resulting in the presence of free antibody (>10:l) in targeted cage preparations. Fluorescent internalization experiments were conducted using BCLl cells and identical experimental conditions as stated above. Experimental incubations for this experiment included the comparison between identical concentrations of targeted cage (purified) and targeted cage (non-purified). Cage concentrations for all experiments are determined by quantifying core protein concentration, so free antibody did not effect concentration calculations. Analysis of internalized delivery system in these experiments was identical to those mentioned above (see Figure 7).
- EXAMPLE 12 EVALUATION OF ANTI-CD22 TARGETED NANOCAGES LOADED WITH DOXORUBICIN TO TARGET AND KILL CD-22 EXPRESSING CELLS
- B cells (Ramos), and T cells (Jurkat) are added to wells of sterile 96-well plates (500,000 cells/ml) in early log growth phase. Complete growth media (see above) is added to each well after which both CD22-targeted nanocages and non-targeted nanocages loaded with doxorubicin are added across multiple concentrations of nanocage (lOpM, 10OpM, InM, 1OnM, and 10OnM). Cells are assayed for viability using Tyrpan Blue exclusion at multiple time points (12hr, 24hr, 36hr, 48hr, 60hr, and 72hr).
- Cell viability is normalized to cell viability at the beginning of the experiments for each cell line and is expressed as a % of "normal”. Cell density is also calculated and plotted across each time point for each concentration. All experiments at individual concentrations are conducted in triplicate for each time point.
- EXAMPLE 13 IN VIVO EVALUATION OF ANTI-CD22 TARGETED NANOCAGES LOADED WITH DOXORUBICIN TO REDUCE TUMOR GROWTH
- Female athymic BALB/c nu/nu mice (Harlan Sprague-Dawley), 7-9 weeks of age are maintained according to institutional animal care guidelines on a normal diet ad libitum and under pathogen-free conditions. Five mice are housed per cage. Raji or Ramos cells are harvested in logarithmic growth phase; 2.5-5.0 X 10 6 cells are injected subcutaneously into both sides of the abdomen of each mouse. Studies are initiated 3 weeks after implantation, when tumors are 100-300 mm 3 . Groups consist of untreated, doxorubicin alone, naked nanocages loaded with doxorubicin, and nanocages loaded with doxorubicin and coated with HB22.7.
- Tumor volume is calculated by the formula for hemiellipsoids (DeNardo GL, Kukis DL, Shen S, et al., Clin Cancer Res 1997;3:71-79).
- Initial tumor volume is defined as the volume on the day prior to treatment.
- Mean tumor volume is calculated for each group on each day of measurement; tumors that have completely regressed are considered to have a volume of zero.
- Tumor responses are categorized as follows: C, cure (tumor disappeared and did not regrow by the end of the 84 day study); CR, complete regression (tumor disappeared for at least 7 days, but later regrew); PR, partial regression (tumor volume decreased by 50% or more for at least 7 days, then regrew).
- Differences in response among treatment groups are evaluated using the Kruskall Walis rank sum test with the response ordered as none, PR, CR, and Cure. Survival time is also evaluated using the Kruskall Walis test. Tumor volume is compared at 3 time points: month 1 (day 26-29), month 2 (day 55-58), and at the end of the study (day 84). If an animal is sacrificed due to tumor-related causes, the last volume is carried forward and used in the analysis of later time points. Analysis of variance is used to test for differences among treatment groups. P values are two-tailed and represent the nominal p-values. Protection for multiple comparisons is provided by testing only within subsets of groups found to be statistically significantly different.
